MY STORY
Welcome to Desiree~B Designs...
Really, it's about passion, I'm passionate about fabric and the thrill of the 'find', then seeing it evolve into something new. I'm passionate about the environment and finding ways to reuse and not buy new, to reduce plastic use, and send less to landfill. I'm passionate about our marine environment, particularly living on Bribie Island, it needs protecting. This is not something that just happens, it's a lifelong journey, sometimes I have done well, and other times, life just got in the way.
I'm all for doing what we can, when we can, we are perfectly imperfect, all trying to make a difference.
Over the years sustainability and environment has always been important to me. Living on half an acre we grew fruits and vegetables, had chooks, made our own compost, bread and jam, and all without the use of chemicals or poisons. We made our own green cleaning products and enjoyed some of the best years raising our family. Nothing beats hitting the raspberry and strawberry patch for fresh ripe berries on the walk home from school. We now continue to grow lots of produce and maintain compost in our healthy poison free Queensland backyard, filled with insects, frogs, pythons and so many birds.
